🛠 Trump doubles tariffs on metal — from 25% to 50%
📅 Starting June 4, an order will come into effect that raises tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. The White House explains this as a fight to restore the industrial potential of the USA.
🇺🇸 At a rally in Pittsburgh, Trump stated:
> "We will raise tariffs to 50%. No one will outbid us. This is our strategic advantage".
⚠️ What this means:
— Increase in prices for steel and aluminum
— Impact on the automotive industry and construction
— Possible retaliatory measures from partners
— Increased trade tensions
— Potential capital outflow to cryptocurrency markets
💬 The White House cites Article 232 of the Trade Expansion Act — formally "in defense of national security," but in fact — a global geopolitical game.
📊 Experts suggest: instability may push investors towards decentralized assets.
